Rambling Roses

Rambling roses are perfect for growing over arches and trellis’, due to their flexible branches which are easy to bend and tie in. Many rambling roses only flower once during early to mid-summer, but usually flower prolifically, producing clusters of flowers. The blooms of ramblers tend to be smaller than those of climbing roses, but are produced in such abundance that once established the result is often breath-taking. Many ramblers also go on to produce attractive hips in the autumn. Scrambling roses, or scramblers, are similar to rambling roses, but generally even more vigorous making them great for growing up into trees or planted to cover large areas.

(Multiflora rambler) 'Yellow Rambler' Clusters of semi-double, medium sized flowers in shades of yellow paling to cream. Growth is upright and stems are almost thornless. Foliage is bright light green with bronzy tints, especially when young. A significant rose as it was on of the varieties initially used by Pemberton in breeding his race of Hybrid Musks.

(Rambler) Huge trusses of apple blossom pink flowers with slightly crinkled petals. Foliage is rich green with cooper overtones. Wood is similar in colour to its foliage with few or no thorns. Superb as a pillar rose. Bred by Burbank.

(Rambler) A spectacular rose which, in full flush, has large clusters of small, very double blooms of rich deep crimson, produced in great profusion in early summer. Abundant light green foliage on a dense growing, vigorous plant. A long flowering season. Introduced from America.

Unique to us in the UK. (Rambler) We are delighted to have raised this continuous flowering rambler. It produces masses of medium sized, soft pink flowers in large cascading clusters all summer through. Ideal for pergolas and arches, it has plentiful, mid-green foliage with no more than a smattering of thorns. Introduced for The Campaign to Protect Rural England.
